Chapter 197: Surrounding the Sarutobi Tribe
That night, several teams from the Uchiha clan headed towards the residential area of the village.
A leaflet was stuffed into the crack of every household’s door.
The whole process is extremely fast, you deserve it, Uchiha distributes flyers.
When the team finished distributing the leaflets and reunited, their packages were empty.
“Have they all been sent?”
The face of the Uchiha who spoke was clearly visible in the moonlight.
It was Uchiha Ao, and this matter was also ordered by Fugaku himself.
"Master Qing, it's all covered."
Everyone confirmed that it was correct.
"Okay, back."
Qing led everyone back to the clan’s land, as if nothing had happened.
Fugaku has already fallen asleep, and tomorrow will be his main event.
Even in his sleep, there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Uncle, I should be about to fulfill your expectations."
......
The first rays of dawn illuminate Konoha.
The villagers also opened their doors and started a new day.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw a flyer dropped through the crack.
I picked it up and took a look at it, and the contents were shocking.
This is a huge scandal, is it really something Hokage-sama can do?
How bad is it to embezzle pension funds to subsidize one's own family?
After a while, many villagers were discussing this matter on the street.
Villagers whose family members died on the front line cried out first.
Their loved ones died in the front lines, but the Hokage pocketed the profits after the war.
That’s money to buy your life! !
As the situation worsened, an ordinary-looking young man stood up and shouted.
"Let's go find the Hokage and ask him about this."
Immediately, several people spoke up in agreement, and the villagers' emotions were also aroused.
No one paid attention to these unfamiliar faces; they didn't know them.
The same situation occurs in every street.
When the villagers gathered on the main road, they had already formed a sea of people.
Under the guidance of someone attentive, the direction the villagers were heading was exactly the territory of the Sarutobi clan, not the Hokage Building.
"Captain, do you want to stop us?"
An Anbu looked at the flow of people and asked the captain beside him.
"We just need to report truthfully."
The captain couldn't do anything with the villagers. He couldn't just fight them.
His family also received flyers, and he also wanted to find out the truth about the content.
"Yes."
The ANBU ninja agreed and watched the sea of people pass by.
"It's time to report."
The captain disappeared immediately after he finished speaking.
When this news reached Sarutobi Hiruzen's ears, the villagers had already surrounded the Sarutobi clan's territory.
"Why so slow?"
"What are they going to do?"
"Are you going to rebel?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen broke the floor at home with one foot.
"Reporting to the Hokage, I guess it's what's on this flyer."
The captain handed Sarutobi Hiruzen a flyer he picked up on the street.
The eyes beneath the mask were fixed on Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression.
Taking the flyer, Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly scanned it.
In an instant, his face changed. The pension had only been moved back a few days ago.
Because most of the pensions are compensation from the Wind Country, and the currencies of different countries are not unified.
They all use gold and silver as reserves, and the newly made coins can be easily distinguished.
Now that the clan is surrounded, once the villagers rush in, the secret will definitely be exposed.
"You are not prohibited from using force to prevent villagers from entering the territory of my Sarutobi clan."
Because he was too excited, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice seemed to tremble.
"Attacking the villagers?"
The captain had gotten the answer from his face and was somewhat resistant to his order.
"What, you want to disobey?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen glared, and a surge of murderous intent enveloped the captain.
"No, just go."
The captain agreed first, then immediately turned around and left, only then he realized that his back was all wet.
"Hatake Kawaifu, what a cruel method."
Sarutobi Hiruzen crumpled the flyer in his hand into a ball, and then it turned into ashes and slowly fell to the ground.
It was not convenient for him to show up now, so he could only summon the shadow guards, hoping that these people and the ANBU could guard the Sarutobi clan.
As long as the money is not seized, there is still room for recovery.
However, Chuan Feng also predicted this method.
Watching as the villagers surrounded the Sarutobi clan and confronted the Anbu and Kage guards.
Fugaku no longer hid his figure. He flashed over from not far away and appeared in front of the villagers.
"Uchiha Fugaku?"
A shadow guard frowned, wondering why Fugaku appeared here.
"Everyone, be quiet for a moment. Let me introduce myself."
"My name is Uchiha Fugaku, the current head of the Uchiha clan."
"Everyone gathered here today just to get the truth. I believe that the Hokage would not do such a bad thing."
"Let's wait for the Hokage to come or go into the Sarutobi clan and take a look. Then everything will be clear."
"You guys making noise here won't solve the problem."
Fugaku pretended to be a good guy, and his title as clan leader also played a big role.
At least now the villagers seem to have a backbone.
"Fugaku-sama, what if Hokage-sama doesn't come?"
A "villager" asked.
"Yeah yeah."
"If you don't come, does that mean it's true?"
Not all the villagers are fools. They can figure out the key to whether Sarutobi Hiruzen will come or not with just a little thought.
"If Hokage-sama isn't here, he might be busy with something else."
"I don't believe he would do such a thing."
"Then I will personally take you in and prove the Hokage's innocence."
Fugaku seemed to be really standing in Sarutobi Hiruzen's camp, and what he said was so sincere.
"Okay, we'll trust you this time."
Most of the villagers agreed and continued to waste time with the ANBU and Shadow Guards.
"Excuse me, how long will it take for the Hokage to arrive?"
Fugaku went up and asked with a smile, and happened to be asking the Anbu captain who was reporting the news to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
How could he dare to use force at this moment, let alone whether he could defeat Fugaku.
If he really beat the Uchiha clan leader in front of so many villagers, how would he bear the consequences?
Being dismembered by Uchiha?
"Um, Hokage-sama is busy."
The captain gave an ambiguous reply and said no more.
Fugaku savored these words carefully and looked at the captain deeply several times.
"We'll wait another hour."
"If Hokage-sama doesn't come, I will take you inside."
Fugaku turned around and made a promise to the villagers. He was not afraid at all that the money was hidden.
"Impossible. No one will be able to enter the territory of my Sarutobi clan today."
The ninja of the Sarutobi clan took a few steps forward, looking like they were ready to fight if they disagreed.
"This idiot."
The shadow guard cursed in his heart, if you say that, even if there is no ghost, it will become one.
You can find other excuses to take action, but what's the difference between you doing this and self-destructing?
"Oh?"
"You won't let me in. Did Lord Hokage really embezzle the pensions for the ninjas who died on the front lines?"
Fugaku walked forward slowly with a smile, and his three-magatama Sharingan slowly appeared.
The scarlet eyes stared straight at the Sarutobi clan ninja who spoke.
The Sarutobi clan ninja swallowed and didn't dare to look Fugaku in the eyes.
"I~I~"
He stammered for a long time, not knowing how to respond.
It’s not okay to let him in, and it’s not okay not to let him in.
Fugaku was roasting him directly over the fire.
